Passengers have complained about the reduction to the Eccles tram service.
One commuter, Oliver, 17, said: “I can’t get straight to Piccadilly Station once I’ve finished college. I have to get three trams to get home instead of just the one.”
Salford resident Tracie, 19, felt “frustrated” by the tram line being cut short.
She said: “I had to take the bus, which are really unreliable. When the bus didn’t turn up, I had to get an Uber, which made it very expensive.”
Trams will resume their regular service pattern from Monday March 17.
